make installworld & obsolete files
Hi all, Is the make installworld command deleting files belonging to older FreeBSD versions and no longer present in the version being installed? If no, is there a reliable way to identify those files in order to be able to delete them by hand?

Tracking files installed by make installworld
Hi, I recently decided to tailor the FreeBSD installation of my gateway and only build the components of the base system that I really need: --- /etc/make.conf snippet --- NO_FORTRAN= true NO_I4B= true NO_IPFILTER=true NO_SENDMAIL=true NO_X= true NOGAMES=true NOUUCP= true -- My next make world will not install those components, but how can I remove the old files? How can I know the packaging list of the components? Best regards, Jean-Yves Lefort -- Jean-Yves Lefort [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://void.adminz.be/ msg03536/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

You probably come from a Linux background, where /bin/sh is generally symlinked to /bin/bash. On FreeBSD, /bin/sh is the historical UNIX shell, the Bourne Shell. The '&>' (aka '>&') construct is a bashism, and won't work using /bin/sh. The /bin/sh equivalent of bash's 'cat foo &>file' is 'cat foo >file 2>&1'.
